Charles Johnson writes, "We knew this was coming: Ahmadinejad says Hezbollah victorious", adding:

The amazing part is that Hizballah claims to be both victor and victim—and the mainstream media are doing their best to support both mutually exclusive positions.

Elsewhere, Andrew Stuttaford links to a piece in the Daily Telegraph in which Michael Nazir-Ali, the Church of England's Bishop of Rochester asks:

So how does this dual psychology--of victimhood, but also the desire for domination--come to infect so many young Muslims in Britain?

In the passage excerpted by Stuttaford, Nazir-Ali looks at one reason that Theodore Dalrymple also explored in depth as one of the causes of last fall's Paris riots.

Update: More dual psychology here, as Val Prieto, guest-blogging at Michelle Malkin's, spots San Franciscans praising the famously pro-gay Fidel Castro:

I've coined a term for people like the ones in the San Francisco and Harlem celebrating fidel castro's birthday: Vicarious Communists (or Marxists, or Socialist or fidelistas. The terms are interchangeable.)

In a similar vein, Fred Siegel's Weekly Standard piece on H.L. Mencken and the psychology behind his anarcho-authoritarianism is also worth exploring.
